Info about the wine
Grenache Gris grown on slate soils from vines over 80 years old.
Color
Bright yellow with clear silvery reflections.
Nose
The 2018 Iglesia Vella is intense on the nose - lime, orange, Amalfi lemons, interwoven with salty sea breeze, iodine and oyster shell. Wild herbs stand out clearly, such as sage, mint, thyme and lemon balm. Stony notes skillfully frame it. A wine that arouses great curiosity and seduces to want to taste it.
Palate
A pleasantly provocative impression full of saltiness and precision on the tongue This wine has something to say, this is immediately clear. It unloads with lots of fruit, pleasantly provocative acidity and subtle grapefruit notes. At the same time it challenges and pushes the taster, it wants to be more than a juicy and smooth drop. Its incredible depth and the long reverberation set the stage for seafood cuisine and spicy food preparations.
Food recommendation
Be sure to decant and enjoy from a large glass
